Event 2 (Day 1A): Field Continues To Grow

Event 2 ($360 No Limit Hold'em $100,000 GTD)
Level 4 (Blinds 100/200)
Total Day 1A Entries: 105
Day 1A Players Remaining: 91

Evan Teitelbaum (Parkland, FL)

This Day 1A field has already eclipsed the century mark in terms of entries, which gives us a prize pool of $31,500 (at the moment).  That is already well ahead of the pace needed to reach the $100,000 guarantee posted on the event, which will likely be reached at some point tomorrow afternoon.  That means that the five-figure score that will be waiting the eventual winner of this event continues to grow larger.  

A five-figure cash will likely help Evan Teitelbaum (Parkland, FL) eclipse the $700,000 mark in career tournament earnings.  Evan currently sits with $684,181, and is coming off a year in which he earned $67,426 (from 18 recorded cashes).  Much of that number from last year came here at the Isle, when he won a $100,000 Guaranteed event ($120 No Limit Hold'em) for $31,000.  Teitelbaum headlines the second wave of notables spotted in this Day 1A field:

Ricardo Eyzaguirre
Michael Newman
Alik Sitnyakovsky
Ira Marcus
Jeffrey Kessler
John Palace
Vendel Johnson
Bryce McVay
Marcus Skaggs
